Review Summary
Users praise the YouTube Like-Dislike Shortcut extension for its simplicity, effectiveness, and convenience of keyboard shortcut-based video liking/disliking. It allows customization and supports auto-like features based on video watch percentage or subscriptions. However, multiple users report recent breakage due to browser or YouTube updates, limitations with playlists and shorts, interface bugs, and incomplete functionality of some shortcuts. Overall, it remains a useful tool appreciated for improving the YouTube user experience despite some current issues.

- Allows liking and disliking videos using keyboard shortcuts, improving convenience and usability especially during fullscreen viewing or keyboard-based operation.
- Customizable shortcut keys for liking and disliking.
- Supports auto-like based on watch percentage or subscription status with configurable options.
- Works well with new YouTube design and has sustained usage and positive feedback over time.
Cons
- Stopped working properly recently with updates to Chrome or YouTube, especially auto-like features for percentage watched and subscribed videos.
- Does not work on playlists and has issues with liking YouTube Shorts via shortcuts.
- Interface bugs such as vertical display of channel names when the extension is enabled.
- Graphical update of the like status sometimes does not reflect after shortcut usage, requiring mouse interaction to update.
